unhappily but too well known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A Bilious man is seldom O
breakfast eater. To frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for H.
quids but none for solids of morn
ing. His tongue will hardly bear in
spection at any time; if it is not white
and furred, it is rough at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out
OF order and Diarrhea or Constipation
may be symptom or the two may al.
ternate. There are often Hemor-
rhoids or even loss OF blood. There
may be giddiness and often headache
and acidity or flatulence and ttnder.
ness in the pit of the stomach. To
correct all this, if not effect a cure,
try Green's Aug,tSt FOtCer; it costs
but a trifle, and thousands attest It's
efficacy.
